Frequently asked questions

How are words counted?

The text is split on whitespace and punctuation. Each unique word (case-insensitively by default) is counted and the results are sorted by frequency descending.

Are common words (stop words) excluded?

Enable the stop words filter to exclude common function words like 'the', 'and', 'is', 'in' — words that appear frequently but carry little meaning. This surfaces content-bearing words.

What is word frequency used for?

SEO keyword analysis, understanding writing style, finding overused words for editing, building tag clouds, and text mining / natural language processing preprocessing.
